Arch.Company currently trying to decide between Windows 2000 Server & 2003 which one to use on a new server.
One vendor* says 2000 because 2003 can’t put in a user name like RAY ? Is this true?
Also there are other bugs in the 2003 software?
Vender*.1 spec.
Acer Altos G510 Server;
3 X 73SCSI H/SWAP Hdisks;
2 x 512 DDR-SDRAM with ECC -266Mhz;
ASRC 1x channel 64Mb U320 RAID contrlr;
– RAID levl 5.
Intel Xeon 2.4 Ghz 512k 533 MhzFSB;
Windows 2000 server + 25 user lic.
Vender.2
Intel HT P4.3 Ghz (3000Mhz) 800 Mhz FSB S478 521K
M/b – S875WP1LX P4 S478 server brd. 800FSB 2DDR266
DDR266 PC2100e 512Mb A-Grade unbuffered ECC (Intel Cert.)
3 X 73SCSI H/SWAP Hdisks;
Windows 2003 server + 25 user lic.
We don’t know which one to go for?
Can any one help?
Are we better to use Raid 5 and using 3 h/disk as one or use one h/disk with mirroring to another and the third as a hotswap backup?
